When he regained consciousness, he found it unbelievable that a small child was herding cattle in a desolate area, and he was surprised by their dirty and uncivilized appearance. With the hospitality of a Mongolian, the boy threw his beloved goat and cooked it for him. But John was very upset when he couldn’t eat it.
